Davide Libenzi f348d70a32 [PATCH] POLLRDHUP/EPOLLRDHUP handling for half-closed devices notifications 
Implement the half-closed devices notifiation, by adding a new POLLRDHUP
(and its alias EPOLLRDHUP) bit to the existing poll/select sets.  Since the
existing POLLHUP handling, that does not report correctly half-closed
devices, was feared to be changed, this implementation leaves the current
POLLHUP reporting unchanged and simply add a new bit that is set in the few
places where it makes sense.  The same thing was discussed and conceptually
agreed quite some time ago:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/12/116

Since this new event bit is added to the existing Linux poll infrastruture,
even the existing poll/select system calls will be able to use it.  As far
as the existing POLLHUP handling, the patch leaves it as is.  The
pollrdhup-2.6.16.rc5-0.10.diff defines the POLLRDHUP for all the existing
archs and sets the bit in the six relevant files.  The other attached diff
is the simple change required to sys/epoll.h to add the EPOLLRDHUP
definition.

There is "a stupid program" to test POLLRDHUP delivery here:

 http://www.xmailserver.org/pollrdhup-test.c

It tests poll(2), but since the delivery is same epoll(2) will work equally.
